would these be good for survival pants?

Don't think I know the answer to that, but they are well made, material seems strong.

I believe, yes, in hot weath climate in works like Forestguard, but isn't the ideal, this may work well but..., I sugesst to you Propper but 100% cotton ripstop BDU's pants, P.D. I'm in Colombia, I work in field, wet forest and cloud forest, I know wath I say.

No. These pants attract zombies. I think it's something in the waterproofing material. Also, they SCREAM "I am well-prepared and have lots of supplies on hand." You need to be a little more subtle than that, or you'll attract attention. Also, the belt has a tendency to get wrapped around your neck and choke you out, which decreases chances of survival.

yes they are, there heavy duty pants that most of the contracters use in iraq where its 115+ i hike the grand canyon in them last year and it was really hot. these pants are almost like wearing shorts

ABSOLUTELY! These pants hug your body, your joints, your lower back and keep those areas tight, warm, and breathing all at the same time. I have used these for Tabata Bootcamp classes, beach volleyball, power walking, jogging, and just to feel GREAT!

I'm not sure why you'd want to mold these to shape with heat, I certainly wouldn't try. You see all those lines in the picture? Those are grooves in the knee pad that allow it to flex pretty readily. They're a type of foam rubber, so I wouldn't expose them to heat, so I have no idea how much heat they'd tolerate. And, finally, no; they're not FR. I'm not an expert in FR clothing, but isn't the FR-ness of protective clothing based on the external layer? Correct me if I'm wrong, but couldn't you basically wear napalm skivvies and not affect the Kcal rating of your FR clothing?

Bradford W. these are great RAIN pants, they will keep you dry from rain. However, they are not wading pants. If you are going to use them for rain protection while fishing, then yes excellent choice, if you plan to wade into the water no, not designed for that.

I don't really know. I always use mine after having washed my pants. I guess you could try them -- I don't see why they wouldn't work. Sorry not much help. All I can say is they are great on washed pants.

I think they would be perfect for that purpose. The covers fit fairly snug so it will probably be air tight

they should be. I've used these for hiking, camping (wearing in tent), etc. They are actually quite pleasant in smell, and one of my favorite for mosquito repellents (believe me Ive tried a lot too) . Avon bug guard wipes are also a favorite of mine. Avon SSS Bug Guard Plus Picaridin Towelettes - Pack of 16 BONUS SIZE

Probably.... but the pants have a drawstring to tighten. You could make it work. I would prob go a size smaller. They are pretty long already.

I think so. They are made of plastic and are very durable and lightweight. Should be good for outdoors too! Hope this helps.

The material is a smooth vinyl. They would probably be fine over pants but may not feel good against bare skin.

I would say yes. There is enough flex and stretch on these to accommodate slight size variations. Mine look a little stretched, but they still get the job done. They seem durable and won't rip right away. I'm sure they will after time and use, but that's expected.

I didn't buy them for wearing anywhere except to bed in the winter. For that they work GREAT! How they would hold up in boots is iffy. They seem a bit to 'fluffy' for much hard wearing. I would try it but would wear thin 'wicking' socks under them.

Yes u could use them for that. They would certainly protect ur hands from the heat or fire.

Yes. But it should only be the pants you wear. The pants are lined. So long johns and these pants would be fine.

I think they would I bought them for tying fishing knots and they seem to work well for that. Hope this helps

I can't advise you on this matter, however I tend to believe they may be suitable. Please follow the reccomended heat advised by the manufacturer. The fit of the glove should be coverage against splatter or spill, in most cases. I feel fairly confident in personally using these for the use you describe.
